Always thought it was a bit of a overplayed trope that little boys love machines, but man does tinyest LOVE a train or a digger. I keep going "Look! a train!" even when I am out by myself.
Thinking I might take him out to gipsland on a vline this weekend for a cafe or something.
My son absolutely adored this book when he was little.
We bought him a couple of plushies from it too.
Definitely do a V line trip. He'll have a blast. Or Puffin Billy (I think it still operates).
We've got something similar! Mr Brick the builder or something like that. cant wait till he is old enough for puffing billy. Not sure whos gonna get more outta that, me or him!
Ha! I had this memorised at one point. It was one of the books I could recite if I were putting the kids to bed away from home.
